摘要 (Abstract):

Photoinduced molecular processes play a key role in physics, chemistry, and biology. In nature, light triggers a large variety of chemical reactions such as photosynthesis, vision, and the formation of vitamin D, but also can cause the radiation damage of biomolecules and photolysis. Furthermore, the interaction of light with matter forms the basis of important technological applications such as solar cells in which photoinduced charge transfer and light harvesting are essential. What all these processes have in common is capturing the energy of light and its transformation into other forms of energy like heat, electricity, or chemical energy. On a microscopic level, this energy conversion process is the result of correlated motion of electrons and nuclei after photoexcitation or photoionization of matter. In this talk, I will discuss our theoretical developments aimed at describing the ultrafast quantum dynamics arising during and after the interaction of atoms, molecules, and solids with intense ultrashort laser pulses. I will present several fully quantum and semiclassical approaches capable of simulating the field-induced electronic and electron-nuclear dynamics in matter in real time and space. Turning theory into practice, I will discuss the possibilities to trace the ultrafast quantum dynamics by means of attosecond transient-absorption spectroscopy and attosecond electron diffraction imaging technique. I will present applications of our developed theoretical techniques to interpret recent pioneering experiments measuring properties of matter with atomic resolution and on attosecond time scales. The ability to simulate and observe the electronic and nuclear dynamics can provide new insights for understanding properties of matter and is of crucial importance to comprehend the diversity of the world or even life.
